Cookies

This Cookie Policy explains how cookies are used on the Mechanoid Group website, the purposes for which they are used, and the options available to visitors for managing cookies.

Effective from: 22 September 2026

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small data files that a website may place on a visitor’s computer, mobile phone or other internet-enabled device.

Cookies may help the website recognise a visitor’s device, remember certain settings, support the proper and secure operation of the website, and improve the user experience.

Cookies generally do not identify a visitor directly on their own; however, certain technical identifiers may constitute personal data when combined with other information.

2. Purposes of Using Cookies

The Mechanoid Group website may use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes in particular:

• ensuring the secure and proper operation of the website;
• remembering visitor preferences;
• improving the user experience;
• analysing the use of the website;
• optimising website performance and functionality;
• collecting statistical information;
• supporting marketing and advertising activities where the visitor has provided consent.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

3.1. Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the basic and secure operation of the website. If they are disabled, certain features of the website may not function properly or may not function at all.

These functions may include in particular:

• session management;
• security functions;
• remembering cookie preferences and consent choices;
• proper operation of contact forms;
• navigation and technical functionality;
• technical functions required for the operation of the WordPress system.

3.2. Analytics and Statistical Cookies

Analytics and statistical cookies may provide information about how visitors use the website. The information collected may be used to measure and improve website performance.

Such information may include:

• the number of page views;
• pages visited;
• duration of visits;
• devices and browsers used by visitors;
• the source from which visitors arrived at the website;
• general user interactions with the website.

Where consent is required for the use of such cookies, they will only be activated after the visitor has provided the appropriate consent.

3.3. Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow the website to remember settings or preferences previously selected by the visitor.

These may include, for example:

• language preferences;
• previous user selections;
• display or functionality preferences;
• certain form-related settings.

3.4. Marketing and Advertising Cookies

Marketing cookies may be used to measure the performance of advertising campaigns and, depending on the service used, to display personalised advertisements or support remarketing campaigns.

Marketing cookies are only used where the visitor has provided the required prior consent.

4. Third-Party Services and Cookies

Certain features of the website may use services provided by third parties. These services may use their own cookies or other technical identifiers.

4.1. Google Analytics 4

The website may use Google Analytics 4 to generate traffic and usage statistics, analyse website performance and improve the user experience.

Where consent is required, Google Analytics will only be activated after the visitor has provided the appropriate consent.

4.2. Google Tag Manager

The website may use Google Tag Manager to technically manage measurement codes, analytics services and marketing tools.

Google Tag Manager primarily enables the management of connected services; the individual services loaded through it may be subject to their own data protection and cookie rules.

4.3. Google Maps

Google Maps may be displayed in certain sections of the website. When Google Maps is used, Google may place its own cookies or use other technical identifiers.

4.4. Google Ads

The website may use Google Ads advertising and conversion measurement services. Related marketing or advertising cookies are only activated after the visitor has provided the appropriate consent.

4.5. Meta Pixel

The website may use Meta Pixel technology to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns, optimise campaigns and support remarketing activities.

Meta Pixel will only be activated after the visitor has provided the required prior consent.

4.6. YouTube and Other Embedded Content

If the website contains YouTube videos or other content embedded from external service providers, the relevant provider may place cookies or other technical identifiers on the visitor’s device.

5. Legal Basis for the Use of Cookies

Strictly necessary cookies are used where required for the proper operation and security of the website and for providing functions requested by the visitor.

Non-essential cookies, including analytics, statistical, functional and marketing cookies, are used on the basis of the visitor’s prior consent where required by applicable law.

6. Cookie Settings and Consent Management

When visiting the website for the first time, visitors may use the cookie management interface to select which categories of cookies, in addition to strictly necessary cookies, they consent to.

Strictly necessary cookies are required for the basic operation of the website and therefore cannot always be disabled through the website’s cookie management interface.

7. Changing or Withdrawing Consent

Visitors may change or withdraw their consent to the use of non-essential cookies at any time through the cookie settings interface available on the website.

Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out on the basis of consent before its withdrawal.

8. Managing Cookies in Your Browser

Most internet browsers accept cookies by default. Visitors may, however, use their browser settings to delete cookies, block them or restrict their use.

If cookies are completely disabled, some features of the website may not function properly or may become unavailable.

9. Cookie Retention Periods

The lifetime of a cookie depends on its type and purpose.

• Session cookies: generally remain active until the browser is closed.
• Persistent cookies: may remain on the visitor’s device for a defined period or until they are manually deleted.
• Third-party cookies: their retention periods are determined by the relevant third-party service provider.

10. Related Data Processing

The processing of personal data associated with cookies and other technical identifiers is also governed by the Mechanoid Group Privacy Policy.

11. Changes to this Cookie Policy

Mechanoid Group reserves the right to amend this Cookie Policy, particularly where the technologies or services used on the website change or where the applicable legal environment is modified.

The current version of the Cookie Policy will always be published on the website.
